(This Note is not part of the Order)
This scheme varies the Doncaster By-Pass Special Roads Scheme 1957 so as to shorten the southern end of the special road in the parish of Blyth by 410 metres. Two new connecting roads, one linking the southbound carriageway of the Motorway with a new roundabout and the other connecting a new roundabout with the northbound carriageway of the Motorway are being provided. The shortening of the special road is a consequence of the redesign of the Blyth junction which includes the construction of two new roundabouts and a link road that passes over the Al which will be lowered. This redesign has resulted in the point at which the motorway ends moving further to the north due to the provision of the new motorway slip roads and hence a change in the point at which motorway traffic may join or leave the motorway.
